This is a subject that goes badly in Madrid. While Los Blancos won La Liga and the Champions League last season, Los Blancos were somehow snubbed at FIFA The Best awards on Monday night. Karim Benzema, Ballon d’Or, was not elected best player, since it was Messi who scooped this award, while Courtois was beaten by Martinez for the best goalkeeper award, and Vinicius Junior did not. not even been elected in the eleven type.
On social networks, Karim Benzema even published a few somewhat anecdotal messages, but interpreted as spades against these trophies awarded by FIFA. Anyway, the reaction of Carlo Ancelotti was expected. The Italian coach thus expressed himself on this subject at a press conference on Wednesday, in a style always quite diplomatic.
Ancelotti does not lend it more importance than that
“I didn’t see what Benzema did. We thank him for helping us win the titles last season and we hope we can thank him again for titles this season. To have Karim is to be closer to titles. For us, this (FIFA The Best, editor’s note) is not so important. The World Cup dictated that Argentina were deservedly champions. It’s normal that Messi, Martinez and Scaloni won the awards.”first launched the Italian.
“The first three nominees have an extraordinary level. Who would I have voted? I can’t say… But the three would be from Real Madrid”, concluded the Real Madrid coach, not particularly thrilled by this subject which nevertheless fascinates the crowds in the country of Cervantes. This will surely not serve to calm the ardor of the people of Madrid…
